There's multiple levels of abstraction in my take on the whole "hexing the fae" thing. I don't believe in hexes. But if I did, hexing someone would be pretty bad, and you shouldn't do it for the same reason you shouldn't shoot people. But I don't believe the fae are out there to be hexed. But if I thought the pop-pagan perception of the fae was true, they're less like people and more like the platonic ideal of rape culture, and I would support killing as many of these things as possible. But if I did believe in the fae, I would believe that the stories about the fae are slander, because no group of real people is that consistently evil. So I guess I'm against hexing the fae for the same reason I'm against playing Racial Holy War--it doesn't seem like a good mindset to put yourself in.
